Summary

There are many ways a business can lose money, but one common issue is revenue leakage, which occurs when a business mistakenly charges lower amounts due to errors such as data entry mistakes, incorrect data synchronization, discounts that continue beyond their expiration date, credit card expirations, and chargebacks. To find and eliminate these leaks, businesses need to identify the problematic area, compare monthly earnings with projected earnings based on client databases, analyze workflows, recreate steps, and make structural changes or automate processes to prevent future errors. By implementing these strategies, businesses can recover lost revenue and improve their bottom line.
